TRAINJOTTING CLASSIC: Word of the Week — Facial Profiling
Posted by TJ under Seat
FACIAL PROFILING: \FAY-shull PROH-fihh-lingg\ noun: Selecting one’s seat on the train based on the attractiveness of the person in the adjacent seat.
[Note: Not to be confused with Spatial Profiling, which involves selecting one’s seat based on the size of the person in the adjacent seat.]
USAGE: I was guilty of some major facial profiling on the 5:46 to Mt. Kisco as I grabbed the seat next to the raven-haired hottie.
